Naturally the PC won't be crossed with the two other console-platforms, but is there a chance that the two consoles will get crossed?

Doughtful.

I would say definitely not. Sorry for your loss.

Why would it be natural PC wouldn't cross? It already happens with GFWL.

I know now since valve partnered up with sony, there going to have steamworks on ps3 for pc&ps3 crossplatform gaming togehter on portal 2 which is going to be an amazing advantage for sony in the long run for future valve games. would be cool if brink would use steamworks on ps3 ha

I understand that the Sony six-axis controller has a slight advantage over the Xbox controller, and so it would be somewhat unfair to pit the two together. But then again, there is at least one controller for the PS3 that works like a mouse, so who knows if Sony even cares about such things.

I want cross platform play, yet doubt it will happen. Don't mind if they have an advantage either, it'd just make the experience worthy of respect.

I don`t think Steamworks for the PS3 works like that, Its more for updating games faster without having to send it to Sony for evaluation which takes weeks for some games.

Yea...Steamworks isn't the Steam server. If the 360 had steamworks back when Team Fortress 2 came out, both the Xbox and PC versions of Team Fortress would be updated. It cuts out the middleman between Valve and the owner of Valve games.

This has been discussed but will not be featured in Brink.

Yeah - unfamous frag fx.... I hate ppl using frag fx. bloody cheaters. It give a user such an edge you might think hes using aimbot hack- I ve met few users in kz2- which is slow paced game and it was like shooting to squirrel on cocaine. Even worst- they think they actually good. Only " network tool" laggers are more annoying


Back on topic, I dont think this will ever happened. more possible is cross of console/ pc

I assume you mean "Infamous". "Unfamous" would mean that no one knows of it, which it sounds like they do.

Cross-console is just about non-existent save a handful, like Shadowrun or Phantasy star. I would wait for it to become more common in games where controls don't matter so much, such as RPG games, before hoping for it in FPS games.

Portal 2 is going to be cross platform, which is interesting, but that's a first person puzzle game, not a first person shooter.

Well, in Portal it will go like "Jebus Christ, you failed that jump again!? R u on console?"

Y does Sony six axis have edge over xbox pad? I dislike ps3 pads, no weight n flimsy anologue.

There's that new 360 pad coming isn't there with extra buttons and adjustable anologue sticks, adjust the resistance on them.

All of the buttons on the six-axis are pressure sensitive, save the L3 and R3 buttons under the anolog sticks. The xbox controller has all digital buttons except for the two triggers. The Six-axis also has 10-bit anolog sticks where the xbox controller only has 8-bit. These two things would be able to skew things in favor of PS3 if played cross-console.

As much as I would love to play against/with more players, the PS3 mouse like controller would give them the upper hand, and there would be nothing the XBOX360 gamers would be able to do about it, and I think all game developers have thought about this, and the moment the mouse hit the market, all hope was lost, forever, and ever.


Forever.

i guess we just have to wait until the next gen and hope that those consoles will let everyone plug in their favorite pc mice and keyboards into their consoles and have them work perfectly in games.

And what if not everyone has a computor? Then what the [censored] will we do, Atavax, what the [censored] will we do?!

well, you could either use a console controller or buy a mouse and keyboard... if you recognize the mouse and keyboard as superior controllers, then i don't see why you would have a problem with the consoles being compatible with them. and if you don't view them as superior controllers, then you shouldn't be upset with their use, because you can pwn them easily with your console controller...

First of all, the Xbox 360 has a keyboard and mouse adapter that you can buy and use any keyboard/mouse you want. But both this and the mouse controller for PS3 are 3rd party, neither Sony nor Microsoft had anything to do with making them, its not part of the plan.

I don't see mice being made by either company for their consoles, as one of the main attractions to consoles is the fact that you can lay on your couch and use the controller without having to sit up next to a hard surface. Having an official mouse controller would really make it hard for casual gamers to lounge around and use an anolog controller.
